Objective:

To identify sleep-disordered breathing phenotypes in older adults with depressive disorder and obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and evaluate their associations with systemic inflammation.

Key Findings:
  • text
Interpretation:

The high-hypoxia/severe OSAHS phenotype in older adults with depression is linked to a greater systemic inflammatory burden, suggesting a need for tailored management strategies.

Limitations:
  • text
Conclusion:

Identifying distinct sleep-disordered breathing phenotypes can enhance understanding of the systemic inflammatory implications in older adults with depression and OSAHS.
